France faces a political turnaround with no party winning an outright majority in the second round of the parliamentary election.
The right-wing National Rally party (RN), linked to Marine Le Pen, finished third with 143 seats, while the New Popular Front (NFP) and President Macron’s Ensemble coalition also failed to secure a majority.
With an estimated turnout of 67.1%, the highest since 1997, the election has left the country without a clear candidate for prime minister.
President Macron is set to analyze the results before making any further decisions, and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal has announced his resignation following the exit poll results.
Dive into this video for an in-depth analysis of the election results and their implications for France's political future.

French President Emmanuel Macron has called an emergency summit after the US and Russia agreed to hold Ukraine peace talks in Saudi Arabia, excluding the EU and Kiev. The move comes after Trump and Putin’s first direct conversation since 2022, followed by diplomatic discussions on a potential summit. Polish FM Radoslaw Sikorski welcomed Macron’s initiative, emphasizing Europe’s need to counter Trump’s strategy. Ukrainian President Zelensky confirmed his country was not invited. The Guardian reports UK PM Keir Starmer will attend, but France has yet to reveal the full list of invitees.

Trump Putin Call has sent shockwaves across Europe, raising concerns over the future of NATO, Ukraine, and EU security. French President Emmanuel Macron reacted strongly, calling Trump's actions an "electroshock" that should push the European Union to take charge of its own defense and reduce reliance on U.S. military support. Macron emphasized the need for a self-sufficient EU security framework, advocating for European defense investments like the Franco-Italian SAMP-T air defense system instead of U.S. made Patriots. |Trump Putin Call
